Oklahoma Hay Market Report

Alfalfa trade mostly slow to moderate this week. Movement was light to 
moderate. Demand was good for offerings. Trade and movement were limited this 
week by light supplies and offerings. Prices were fully steady though lightly 
tested. Wheat planting continued active this week, slightly ahead of last 
year's progress. Rains are forecast for Friday and the weekend and producers 
were busy trying to wrap up fourth cutting and baling ahead of the incoming 
weather.   

Market News continues to maintain an online hay directory for both in-state
and out-of-state hay producers.  The directories are on the ODAFF homepage
at www.oda.state.ok.us. Producers wishing to list hay are encouraged to call
